Today, Create and Craft presenter Neelam Meetcha shows us how to make a paper flower embellishment from paper. Use the completed flower to spruce up gifts and packages or use it as the focal point on a greeting.
• Cut out three 10cm squares of patterned paper
• With the white side facing up, bend over one corner. Press only in the middle rather than creasing along the whole length
• Keep flipping the paper and making the folds, pressing only in the centre of each one until you reach the opposite side
• Apply a strip of double-sided tape across one finished side and fold the concertina in half
• Repeat with two remaining squares and use double-sided tape to join them all together into a rosette
